that when he died, the State Capitol had to be

their loss.

Album Details: Ka'ano'i, is a solo effort,
an exploration of new avenues, delving into
material of a more contemporary nature. "The kid
with the ukulele" is defining himself as both a
master musician and a superb entertainer. His brand
of top form showmanship couples crisp, frest
ukulele stylings with a voice as rich as his deep
Hawaiian heritage. Refusing to take the world too
seriously, he is both irrepressible and
irreplaceable, a real treausre not only to the
people of these islands, but to all who appreciate
fine artisty.
